Politics for Dummies

I don’t know why, but I’m always kind of a sucker for those silly political quizzes that have you answer, like, five questions, and then try to distill that into some sort of insight into your whole political philosophy. Even more so now that there’s a whole new crop of “which candidate do you agree with most?” quizzes and such. So here’s a quick how-to-pick-your-candidate poll (it’s no Brides Decide, but …). The best part about this quiz is that if you’re left-leaning at all, you’re pretty much guaranteed to wind up with Kucinich on top because, a candidate gets points for each position you agree wtih him/her on and, according to the comments section at Pandagon, Kucinich is the only one who gave a position for every question. It’s kind of like the exact opposite of the “World’s Smallest Political Quiz,” which tells everyone they’re libertarian.
